Description

Installation component

The present invention relates to a mounting assembly, and more particularly to a mounting assembly that can be used with different types of chassis.

Some of the electronic components of the server, such as the motherboard, the power supply, and the hard disk are usually mounted on the mounting assembly (SLED), and are pluggably mounted in the chassis by the mounting assembly. However, conventional mounting assemblies are typically of a fixed size and are only suitable for a particular model of chassis. When the model of the chassis to be installed is changed and the size is different, if the size of the installation component is too large, it cannot be installed to the chassis; if the size is too small, even if it can be installed in the chassis, the clearance of the backplane set in the chassis will be too large, affecting The stability of the electrical connection between the device and the backplane is not universal.

In view of the above, it is necessary to provide an adjustable size mounting assembly.

A mounting assembly includes a body and a movable portion detachably mounted at one end of the body, the body including at least two holding components, the movable portion including a corresponding engaging portion, the holding assembly optionally being The engaging portion cooperates with the positioning.

The engaging portion of the movable portion of the mounting assembly of the present invention can be selectively engaged with the holding assembly of the body to obtain different sizes, and can be installed in different types of chassis, and has versatility.

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the mounting assembly 100 of the present invention is configured to accommodate electronic components such as a main board, a power supply, and a hard disk, so that the electronic device can be plugged into the chassis. The mounting assembly 100 includes a body 10 and a movable portion 30 detachably mounted on the body 10. When the movable portion 30 is mounted on the body 10, it forms a receiving space 50 for accommodating the electronic device together with the body 10.

The body 10 includes a first bottom wall 11 , two opposite first side walls 12 , and a first end portion 13 . The two first side walls 12 are formed by vertically extending from both sides of the first bottom wall 11. The first end portion 13 is vertically disposed at one end of the first bottom wall 11 and connected to the two first side walls 12. The first bottom wall 11 forms a first port 14 with the first end 13 opposite the other end.

The body 10 is provided with at least two sets of holding assemblies 15 . In the preferred embodiment, the body 10 is provided with two sets of latching assemblies 15 spaced apart from the first end 14 by a position adjacent to the first port 14. Each of the holding assemblies 15 includes two positioning posts 151 and two elastic pieces 152. The two positioning posts 151 are respectively protruded from the two first sidewalls 12 . Each of the elastic pieces 152 is formed by cutting a part of the rectangular piece by the first bottom wall 11 and bending it downward. The two elastic pieces 152 are located on the same straight line as the positioning post 151.

The movable portion 30 corresponds to the body 10 and includes a second bottom wall 31, two opposite second side walls 32 and a second end portion 33. The two second side walls 32 are formed by vertically extending from both sides of the second bottom wall 31. The second end portion 33 is vertically disposed at one end of the second bottom wall 31 and connected to the second second side wall 32. The other end of the second bottom wall 31 opposite the second end portion 33 forms a second port 34.

The movable portion 30 is provided with an engaging portion 35. The number of the engaging portions 35 corresponds to the holding component 15 , and each engaging portion 35 can be engaged with the corresponding holding component 15 . In the preferred embodiment, the movable portion 30 is provided with two engaging portions 35 at intervals from the position adjacent to the second port 34 toward the second end portion 33. Each of the engaging portions 35 includes two holding slots 351 and two positioning slots 352 . The two retaining slots 351 are respectively defined in the second sidewalls 32 and correspond to the positioning posts 151 . Each of the card holding grooves 351 has an approximately "L" shape, and includes a sliding portion 3511 and a holding portion 3512 that communicates with the sliding portion 3511. The positioning post 151 can pass through the sliding portion 3511 of the corresponding retaining groove 351, slides to the latching portion 3512, and is snap-fitted therein. The locating slots 352 are defined by the second bottom wall 31. Each of the locating slots 352 corresponds to a resilient piece 152. The elastic piece 152 passes through the corresponding positioning slot 352 and is pressed to the second bottom wall 31.

In addition, in order to make the positioning between the movable portion 30 and the body 10 more stable, the mounting assembly 100 may further include a positioning portion 70. The positioning portion 70 includes a first positioning hole 71 , a second positioning hole 73 , and a stud 75 . The first positioning hole 71 is defined in the first bottom wall 11 and is located on the same line as the positioning post 151 and the elastic piece 152 adjacent to the first port 14 . The second positioning hole 73 is defined in the second bottom wall 31. The number of the second positioning holes 73 corresponds to each of the engaging portions 35, and each of the second positioning holes 73 and the corresponding engaging portion 35 of the engaging groove 351 and The positioning slots 352 are located on the same line, and each of the second positioning holes 73 is respectively aligned with the first positioning hole 71. The studs 75 are disposed through the aligned first positioning holes 71 and the second positioning holes 73, and are fixed to the first positioning holes 71 and the second positioning holes 73. Inside.

Referring to FIG. 3 , when the mounting assembly 100 is assembled, the movable portion 30 is stacked on the body 10 along the second port 34 toward the first port 14 , and the engaging portion 35 of the second port 34 is adjacent to the first portion. The latching assembly 15 of the port 14 is engaged, wherein each of the positioning posts 151 passes through the sliding portion 3511 of the latching slot 351, slides to the latching portion 3512, and is engaged and fixed therein, thereby mounting the movable portion 30. On the body 10. In addition, each of the elastic pieces 152 passes through the positioning groove 352 and is pressed against the second bottom wall 31 to prevent the movable portion 30 from moving up and down relative to the body 10. The stud 75 is fixed to the first positioning hole 71 and the second positioning hole 73. In this way, the movable portion 30 is spliced to the body 10, and the two form the accommodating space 50.

Referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 together, when it is required to change the size of the mounting assembly 100 to be installed in different types of chassis, the movable portion 30 is adjacent to the engaging portion 35 of the second port 34 and the first bottom wall 11 A set of holding components 15 cooperates, correspondingly, the other engaging portion 35 of the movable portion 30 is engaged with the holding assembly 15 near the first port 14, so that the length of the mounting assembly 100 can be shortened for different models. Chassis.

It can be understood that the number and spacing distance of the latching assembly 15 and the engaging portion 35 can be set according to the size range adjusted by the mounting assembly 100 according to actual needs.

The engaging portion 35 of the movable portion 30 of the mounting assembly 100 of the present invention can be selectively engaged with the holding assembly 15 of the body 10 to obtain different sizes, and can be installed in different types of chassis, and has versatility.

In summary, the present invention has indeed met the requirements of the invention patent, and has filed a patent application according to law. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not possible to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
